Daddys Tune

Daddy’s tune - Jackson Browne   (album: The Pretender) ==================== A dirty wind blows through the sky And the Autumn leaves cut loose and fly Leave me watching And wishing I could follow       Though among the regrets that I can’t get by There are just one or two Unkind things I said to you    Daddy what was I supposed to do? I don’t know why it was so hard to talk to you I guess my anger pulled me through No sooner had I hit the streets When I met the fools that a young fool meets All in search of truth and bound for glory   And listening to our own heart beats We stood around the drum Though it’s fainter now The older I become    Living your life day after day Soon all your plans and changes Either fail or fade away Leaving so much still left to say But Daddy I want to let you know somehow The things you said are so much clearer now     F                F#dim And I would turn the pages back But time will not allow The way these days just rip along Too fast to last too vast too strong        Somewhere something went wrong Or maybe we forgot the song Make room for my forty-fives Along beside your seventy-eights Nothing survives But the way we live our lives |         |         |       |        | |         |         |      |        | |       |   / |/       |/       | |/       |/       |/       |/       | |/       |/       | ||:       |         |         |        :|| rep & fade Transcribed by Gerard Koot (Amsterdam The Netherlands) - june 2007 Email:
